Common questions

Why start with an assessment?

Litigation is expensive. A paid assessment gives you a written, honest read on the merits so you can decide with eyes open — sometimes the answer is "don’t."

What’s the small claims limit?

Ontario Small Claims Court handles claims up to $50,000. Our flat fee includes the trial.

How are larger matters billed?

Civil litigation is budgeted by phase — pleadings, discovery, motions, trial — so you always know the next step’s cost.

Will you push to settle?

Where it serves you, yes. Most disputes resolve faster and cheaper through a well-aimed demand or negotiation.
